"Life of Pi" - excellent narrative, what an imagination! I remember reading that in my office one rainy day in Mumbai, with no work at hand.

Dan Brown's The Davinci Code aur Angels and Demons.

Ek damn good writer hai Terry Goodkind. Read 4 of his pustaks,solid mamas.

Then took break reading Dan Brown and will go back to him.

It was an OK book...however, I think the hype I heard about the book may have led to my expecting too much from it.
